Since I noticed many people on this list take an interest in altered states of the mind and I dare stating that (Orb relation!) the Orb's music is a lot about taking you into such states (whether chemically supported or not), I was wondering if anyone has spoken bits of Terence McKenna on CD or tape. I enjoyed reading his stuff a lot and I quite liked the use of TMcK audio on The Shamen's "Re:Iteration" (FSOL remix) and System 01's "Drugs Work" album. So, if anyone's in for a trade (there quite some bits I could offer), I'd be happy if they contacted me privately. Let Orb rule!

Especially if you like the guy's above checkout out http://listen.to/Aural-Industries for some sound snippets in high quality mp3 format from the CD. The track Dolphin Muffler does this weird detuning slowing down trick without really slowing down or going out of tune.. excellent and very Orb like! It really is very good and a crime it's not got wider distribution, hence recognition. Please email in private if you want to order this CD, and i'll hook you up with it, thanks.

(does that > make > any sense?) could this be the origin of that sample? (and the second > question is: does anyone really care?) > I think it's from Ennio Morricone's score for the film "Once Upon A Time In The West" which was directed by Sergio Leone. It's not to be confused with the stuff Morricone did for another spaghetti western by Leone entitled "The Good, The Bad and The Ugly" (which, btw, I like a bit better than "Once Upon ...") - the third of the "bucks"-trilogy ("For A Fistful of Bucks" and "For A Few Bucks More" being the first two parts) . To add my two cents (or bucks, for that matter :-)) to the Fat Boy Slim debate: I think his stuff is more or less generic with some good bits standing out. I liked his remixes of Wildchild's "Renegade Master" and Cornershop's "Brimful of Asha" - nice party audio. He really is kind of commercial but that, to my mind, doesn't render him bad automatically. "Dub Be Good To Me" is an all-time classic, especially because it opened doors to dub and other electronic music for a lot of people who were formerly more or less listening to charts-stuff. And the songs Norman Cook (aka Fat Boy Slim) did with Housemartins or as The Mighty Dub Kats goes to show he has quite a wide range of musical abilities, I suppose. Peace and relaxation, everyone!

Hi everybody. I'm polishing off the latest discog update and wanted to see if anyone had any further info to offer on the "pool mix" question. At this point I'm sure that the U.F.Off "pool mix" is the real "pool mix" since it has billiards noises on it. :-) I suspect that the bootlegs (The Visitor/Anthology II/URT 3) lifted their versions of "O.O.B.E." and "Blue Room" from the Mixmag Live Volume 9 tape, but I don't have the mix to confirm that. Can someone check and report back? That would mean that the Mixmag tracks were mislabeled, 'cause here's what I have on them in the discog at present: [Various: Mixmag Live Volume 9] CS: 1993 UK (DMC Communcations; MML9) CD: 1996 UK (??; MMLCD 09) [Side A: Alex Patterson] System 7: Strange Quotations (orb mix) Suns of Arqa: World Peace Orb: O.O.B.E.
